arm64: Branch predictor hardening for Cavium ThunderX2
From: Jayachandran C <jnair@caviumnetworks.com>
commit f3d795d9b360523beca6d13ba64c2c532f601149 upstream.
Use PSCI based mitigation for speculative execution attacks targeting
the branch predictor. We use the same mechanism as the one used for
Cortex-A CPUs, we expect the PSCI version call to have a side effect
of clearing the BTBs.
